I purchased one of these when first starting locksport too, thought they were high security lol. Since then I have acquired a Zeiss and Yale which are better quality and even some have spools. Thanks for sharing😀✌️
Very nice showcase for a seemingly good lock, but actually it is not secure at all. I love situations like these from a locksport perspective 👌 great video 👍
Yassss sweet humiliation!!😝. Same thing happened to me but with a cross lock padlock. I thought this will be good😳🤣😝. Couldn’t be more right about getting what ya pay for!!
I see these cross locks on the shutters of shops inside the mall. Except they are quite big and cores are made of brass on them. i will take a photo of them tomorrow and show different
I am not in the lock sport picking however I am in the trade. A little history of the this type of lock shows that Linus Yale Sr. patented his 4 way pin lock in 1844. Much much larger than these little pin locks they are pretty rare and can be found on certain makers of safes from the mid 1800's. Next up was a lock of the earlier to mid 1900's called the Cleveland 4 way. These were basically the same as the modern versions seen today.
Amazing how locksport makes you realise how insecure so much stuff is. It's a good job all the crack heads haven't got enough about them to learn these skills
I have a safe that was my Dads that has a lock like this, along with a dial. Using a cruciform pick I can get it to turn slightly, and it puts a lot of tension on to the dial at certain points, any tips please? My dad passed away in 2008 so have just had this safe collection dust, and curiosity is getting the better of me. Annoyingly i remember seeing the cross key on his keyring just don’t know where that went 😢
@@roxannehands313 my guess would be that the dial and key are seperate locking mechanisms, so it wouldn't matter where the dial is. Just a guess though 😁

Definitely notorious for easy picking. I think there are some cruciform locks out there that offer reasonable security.
Well demonstrated.
I really wanna try them rakes from the Palmer set🤤. Enjoyable to watch!! Good stuff Dmac!
I have a multipick giveaway coming up dude so keep ya 👀 open 😁👌🏼

@@roxannehands313 most cross locks are low security. If the cross picks don't work, I'd use a wave rake like in my video
@@Dmaclocksport and where should the dial be while raking? I dropped you an email as well after I commented here, appreciate you getting back to me 😄

Thank you!!
